Agreed. A notice in rc.conf referring the admin to the original file in
/etc/default(s) is a good idea, but if we're going to put commented out
defaults in /etc/rc.conf, then the one to which it refers should be put
into an examples area someplace and not referenced via . at all.
Or we can leave it the way it is. I like the nice uncluttered rc.conf
I have :-).
